Description:
You are an engineer at CFZ Electronics Inc. (www.cfz.com) working on the new built-in speaker of a new laptop computer. Your first project (midterm) is to design and test the amplifier circuit whose specifications are as follows:
 

Specifications:

• The power supply is +/- 12 Vdc.
• The load is an 8 Ohm speaker with a power rating of 0.2 Watts.
• The source is a 250 mV (peak) sinusoid from the function generator. This is for testing purposes only. You will receive a  bonus of 5 points if your boss hears the music.
• Gain of at least 8 V/V over the frequency range of 300 Hz - 10 kHz (without distortion).
• For testing purposes some volume control is required.

Due Date:
Week after Spring Break.
 

Requirements:
You are required to have a:

• Professional  project report  and hand it in prior to your presentation.
• 10 minute presentation with 5 minute question and answer period. All presentations must be done with Power Point.  An example of Power Point presentation can be downloaded here.
• Complete working circuit demonstration and explanation of features.
• Note to ECE 297 students: The midterm project is an extra 5 points (5% of your grade) if it is demonstrated in P-Spice and 10 points (10% of your grade) if it is demonstrated with a working circuit.

Thank you for your cooperation.
